  This little house is absolutely stunning! It's like a step back in time with the latest amenities. Very quaint, extremely quiet at night, and the bedrooms and living spaces were wonderful. The host was also amazing and extremely helpful!

  주차하는게 좀 불편하긴 했는데 대도로변에 주차자리있어서 주차했구요 그리고 가족숙소로 이만한곳 없는것같아요!
  4인가족이었고 아이 두명 데리고 숙박했는데
  룸컨디션 너무좋았어요! 한가지아쉬운건 세면대가 아이가 쓰기 높아서 발디딤대 하나 놓아주시면 좋을것같은? 의견 넣어봅니다. 잘쉬다갑니다 다음여행에도 예약할게요^^

  Мне понравилось, что в стареньком корейском доме сделали апгрейд и осовременили. Чисто и аккуратно. Хорошая посуда. Очень тепло. Есть подогрев одеяла.
